High Tensile Electric Fence

Three or more strands of high tensile wire  are recommended for lots, calves, weaning, and hard to hold cattle. Two strands are perfect for grazing boundaries and cross fencing. This very economical fence replaces barbed wire fence making it ideal for cattle or horse fences. Several miles of fence overgrown with weeds and grass can be powered by one high powered fence energizer.

Five or six strand electric fence controls all classes of domestic livestock and most of their predators and some exotic animals, such as alpacas, replacing woven wire fences at about half the cost. All wires are normally charged, but under very dry, very frozen, or very sandy conditions, the second and fourth strands may need to be grounded. Miles of this fence can be operated with a very high powered energizer without having to control vegetation (no more spraying or string trimming fence lines).
